Gu Zhen welcomed Chunjia and sat down. The two of them exchanged a few polite words. Chunjia took a sip of tea and asked casually, "Has your beloved concubine gone to Huanhua Palace today?"
"Yes." Gu Zhen said, "When the Concubine Xian summoned me, I passed away."
Chunjia smiled and asked what Concubine Xian had said to her.
"It's nothing, just some trivial things before entering the palace." Gu Zhen thought for a while and said, "Mother Xianfei may be homesick. She mentioned the customs and customs of the North many times, and also talked about her life experience. Her parents have already left to visit her in the Imperial Capital... Maybe I spent some time in Yanzhou when I was young, and the empress had nowhere to vent her joy, so she called me over to have a chat."
Chunjia also received the news that Xie Jian and Jiang planned to come to the Imperial Capital to see their daughter together. Hearing this, he felt a little relieved. There was nothing he could do about it. It wasn't that he didn't trust Concubine Xian, but that Concubine Xian was too capable of causing trouble.
Especially after today's court meeting, he didn't want to go to Huanhua Palace, and he also knew that Concubine Xian was probably furious... Under such circumstances, she summoned Gu Zhen, how could Chunjia not doubt her motives
It's just that Concubine Xian barely survived before, and Chunjia couldn't say anything to make her feel aggrieved. She didn't dare to go to Huanhua Palace to persuade her, so she could only ask Gu Zhen.
Looking at Gu Zhen, how was Yun Fenghuang's attitude when he summoned her today
If you put it this way, could it be that the news of the arrival of Xie Jian and his wife made Concubine Xian happy, and she was not even shocked by the outcome of the court meeting
Chunjia thinks it’s unlikely…
He was thinking a lot in his mind and said a few words to Gu Zhen. Seeing that it was getting late, he wanted to make arrangements.
Who would have thought that Gu Zhen would look embarrassed at this moment: "I'm not feeling well today, but I can't serve your Majesty well. Please forgive me!"
Chunjia didn't come here just because of her. Hearing this, he was about to considerately say that it didn't matter, but Gu Zhen recommended a concubine and said, "Why don't you let this Haishi serve you?"
The chances of getting favor in Qiongfang Palace have always been very rare. In the past, there was Yuan Niang, and now Yun Fenghuang and Gu Zhen have rarely seen the emperor's face, let alone the concubines in the side palace.
If Gu Zhen hadn't introduced that this Hai family entered the palace together with Yi Xingen, Qu Hongzhuan and others, Chunjia wouldn't have even remembered it.
He didn't have any objections to this concubine. The key was that Gu Zhen was the one to succeed her. The third prince she was raising was tacitly unlikely to ascend the throne. In order to stabilize the Gu family, Chunjia made preparations for her. The fifth prince who is still under Wei Hengyan's knees, but if there is good news after Hei's death... Chunjia thought about it, and finally agreed.
Anyway, after breaking his promise to the four families, Gu was not willing to use his full strength easily.
Gu Zhen will eventually have another prince, right
When he visited Haishi that night, Concubine Yun Xian of Huanhua Palace was thinking about how he should react the next day.
Although all the attendants were very angry today, Yun Fenghuang himself was in a very calm mood.
After all, she wanted to catch a thief. Although she failed to force Lu Chuncao to death, she had already made a profit by being able to hide the fact that the matter was such a big deal.
So according to her true feelings, she didn't want to bother with anything anymore.
The key is, whether Chunjia or Empress Dowager Yuan, the people in the former harem and the harem are not stupid.
Who is she, Yun Fenghuang
From the day he entered the palace, he was a master who never slept overnight for revenge.
She would stomp on anyone who didn't provoke her, let alone the "culprit" who almost killed her.
Now that the outcome of the court meeting was so perfunctory that even the waiters felt aggrieved, how could she still make no move? That must be a guilty conscience!
Therefore, although his conscience was a little painful, Yun Fenghuang decided to make a fuss.
There must be a fuss.
Not only the quarrel with Chunjia, but also the Empress Dowager Yuan, the Empress Dowager, and even the former court cannot let go!
With this idea in mind, she pinched the sky. When Chunjia got up and prepared to go to court, she got up, put on makeup and makeup, and dressed herself up. She also asked someone to twist a handkerchief and put it on her forehead, and asked her left and right to look at it. , nestled in the tent, under the light filtered in through the layers of curtains, Xi Shi felt completely sick, and then he ordered Chen Jing to go to Qiongfang Palace to invite someone.
Because Yun Fenghuang had never used this trick of pretending to be sick, and she had not survived for a long time, Chunjia did not dare to neglect when she received the news, and pushed her away shyly to him Haishi, who was adjusting his robe, raised his legs and walked out!
Haishi's status was low and he did not dare to feel wronged. When he saw this, he hurriedly ran to report to the chief.
Gu Zhen was also surprised when he heard this. He thought to himself that when he saw Concubine Xian during the day, although she was not as healthy as before with a rosy complexion, she was still in great spirits. She didn't look like something was going to happen.
But because Yun Fenghuang had never played like this before, she had no doubts and worriedly considered whether she should go to Huanhua Palace to see him together
"Your Majesty has already passed. It's better for your Majesty not to make such a fuss now. After all, Huanhua Palace must be very busy now." After thinking about it, he felt that it would be safer to just wait and see. "You think there is the eldest prince Zhao Qing over there. The princess and the concubine Xian's two nieces are here. If we bump into each other at this moment, and you don't show up, I can't blame you. What if something goes wrong... Well, really unclear."
Let's just pay back the two Miss Xie's grandsons. They are outsiders anyway, and their status is not considered noble. The key is the eldest prince and Princess Zhaoqing... You must know that the concubine Xian was poisoned in Huanhua Palace earlier!
Who knows if the culprit has taken action again this time.
Maybe even the emperor's heir will be affected this time
If Gu Zhen follows her, people around her will know that she has good intentions, but the person in Huanhua Palace is not a reasonable person.
What if you suspect their empress
And I also knew that the emperor must not be in a good mood now. Gu Zhen was not a beloved concubine. When she went to him, she became a punching bag due to bad luck, but why bother
Gu Zhen was persuaded, but others received the news later and ran over regardless.
There are three such people, Concubine Wei Def from Yijia Palace next door, who came here to show her loyalty; Concubine Xie from Tongxia Palace, who left because she was afraid that Concubine Xian’s poison would relapse. Looking back, she might not be able to be as stable as she is now without a backer. The last one surprised Huanhua Palace. It was the head of Feihan Palace, Jia Pingye, who had almost no presence in the palace these days.
Jia Pingye clenched the handkerchief in front of all kinds of surprised eyes, feeling very bitter in her heart.
She actually didn't want to come either.
But there is no way. Due to the fall of two backers, even the power of her mother's family is not as good as before, and she is not very well-informed in the palace now.
Regarding the poisoning of Concubine Xian, Jia Pingye could only listen to the news from the court meeting.
Just yesterday, Lu Qidao was identified as the real murderer at the court meeting. Of course, Jia Pingye didn't believe this result.
Over the years, she and Lu Qidao had similar status and similar situations. They had many contacts and knew each other well. Lu Qidao definitely did not have this ability.
Even the charges of murdering the Sixth Palace and the emperor's heir must have been fabricated. With this ability, Lu Qidao has already risen to the top like the Concubine Xian and monopolized the emperor's favor. How can he still be a low-level concubine like her
But the Chaohui thought so. No matter what the truth was, the truth in the scene was Lu Qidao... Jia Pingye felt a little sad when she heard the news. As a result, something went wrong with Concubine Xian again. She couldn't help but think too much: this time again Who did it
Do we need to find new scapegoats
If you are looking for a scapegoat again, look at the palace today. Jia Pingye sadly found that there is no one more suitable than herself
Although the concubines were usually humble, it was a good thing at this time, because they were generally of low origin and not well-loved, so they were not qualified to be dragged out to take the blame.
Therefore, it's okay to be used as a punching bag every day, but at critical moments, they are safer.
The turmoil in the imperial harem two years ago has proven that it is enough to use concubines to block small things. For really big things, at least Jieyu is qualified to be a shield.
And among the concubines in the palace now, excluding Lu Qidao who must die, she is the most dangerous.
She immediately panicked and could only try to fight for her own survival by rushing to Huanhua Palace immediately to show her loyalty.
... But although the three concubines arrived one after another, none of them could see Yun Fenghuang.
The eldest maid, Qingdu, looked embarrassed, and led someone to invite them to the small flower hall to serve tea: "Your Majesty is accompanying the empress inside, and both of them have said not to disturb you, so the maids did not dare to report. Please also ask the three ladies to wait here for a moment."
Naturally, the third concubine did not dare to object: "It's time for you, young lady."
Looking at each other, we felt a lot heavier, wondering if Concubine Xian could be... bad this time
Could it be that the emperor was there to say goodbye
They were so deep in thought that they didn't notice Qingdu secretly sighing in relief.
In fact, not only Qingdu was outside at the moment, but not a single servant was left in the dormitory. Even Yan Yin didn't dare to stay nearby, and they all retreated far away.
There was no other way, just half an hour ago, Chun Jia hurried over, entered the dormitory at a fast pace, and shouted out "A Huang". Before he could ask for details, Yun Feng Huang, who was lying dying in the tent, raised his hand and He threw a hidden bag out and almost hit him in the face: "Get out! Get out of here!"
Then... the waiters ran away quickly, not daring to stay any longer.
But even if you retreat far away, you can occasionally hear bursts of movement from the dormitory, people smashing things, crying, cursing... I wonder how violent Concubine Xian was this time.
So much so that the servants who were still aggrieved by their empress yesterday were all uneasy: He is the emperor after all, so what can go wrong if he is making such a fuss
…Of course not.
Yun Fenghuang knew very well that based on her behavior when she entered the palace and her nature, she would have almost died if she was really harmed. Chunjia patted her chest and said that she would leave the matter to him, but in the end she settled the matter lightly. He said that he even went to rest with other people that day. It would be strange if she didn't explode!
The more serious the fuss is now, the less likely one will be suspected.
Otherwise, with Chunjia's shrewdness, even if he is relieved now, he will definitely have doubts in retrospect.
How could she fall short of the plan she had worked so hard to set up
So I'm sorry, who told him that Gong Xiangji was too smart and not a fool who couldn't tell the difference between wheat and rice
If Chunjia, who is not doing anything today, comes to die, she will never give up!
She must nip any tiny flaw before it appears! ! ! !
"Listen to me, listen to me..." Chunjia wanted to explain all morning, but failed to find a chance. Finally, Yun Fenghuang was tired from the fall, so he walked to the footrest with bare feet and sat down. He secretly He breathed a sigh of relief and ignored the broken porcelain on the floor. He walked over and hugged the person to comfort him, but was pushed back by Yun Fenghuang. "What are you listening to? I almost died. You still have time to bargain with the regent. I See, you keep saying that you like me and care about me, but in fact you don’t care about me at all! Now? What do you say now? Are you saying that you have difficulties or that it’s not easy for you? I don’t want to hear it!"
After that, he didn't give him a chance to speak, and said with tears in his eyes, "I always felt that even though I was forced to break off my engagement and stay away from my hometown when I was twelve years old, and even entered the palace in a daze when I was fifteen, I could still meet you. These hardships are not unjust... I regret it now! If I had known what would happen today, why would I have come to the Imperial Capital to suffer these hardships in the first place? I might as well have gone to the family temple to be companions with my clan sisters, and my whole life would have passed like this! "
Chunjia was heartbroken when she heard this, and was speechless for a moment. He only held her hand and whispered: "It's not like that..."
Yun Fenghuang sneered and said: "I don't care what you do! Anyway, I know now that I am nothing more than this in your heart! You are the emperor, and I don't dare to compare myself with your power, but now, the regent can do anything You? Just like that, you are still unwilling to seek justice for me. It shows that in your mind, even if I am special than others, I am just a dispensable person! Without me, there will always be people who will continue after me among the thousands of beauties in this world. To please you!”
As he spoke, he shook off his hand and said bitterly, "Go away! I don't want to see you again!"
"..." Chunjia was silent, but held her back, "I just don't plan to be in the scene..."
"So you think it's embarrassing to give me justice in this situation?" Yun Fenghuang suddenly raised his voice, "Then why do you want to make me a good concubine?! Oh, by the way, this good concubine is Ji's aunt and nephew. You were forced to have no choice but to grant the title. They were talking about the position of the fourth concubine. You reluctantly gave it to the lowest among the four concubines. Now the concubines are all above me... "
She pinched herself hard, tears fell again, and she said sadly, "Then Ji is like this now, why do you still have to wrong yourself? Just abandon me! It's not like you have never abandoned the fourth concubine anyway!"
Chunjia hesitated to speak, Yun Fenghuang cried, pushed him, pinched him, pinched him, and let him go... But she secretly muttered in her heart that Chunjia was definitely not the kind of indecisive person, and she also believed that this person could not be He gave in to the regent for no reason. Even if the regent caught some reason and had to give in, why can't he say it now
Is this too involved, or is it inconvenient for her to know
No matter which one it is, it proves that Chunjia's trust in her is not complete yet.
Yun Fenghuang thought back to the few hours when Chun Jia's whereabouts were unknown that night, and felt that it had something to do with the outcome of yesterday's court meeting
She was thinking about making a fuss like this, fearing that Chunjia still didn't say a word, and wanted to force him to do something like fainting, but she still hadn't made up her mind, and Chunjia didn't fight back or let go despite her tossing. Jia suddenly shook his whole body.
Before Yun Fenghuang could react, the emperor, who was considered to be young and powerful, opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he suddenly fell on her!
No, this? ?
Yun Fenghuang stared at him dumbfounded, thinking subconsciously: Then... can he faint
